AZ BS Thread 4²0

Anyone have a 12V diesel heater they use and would recommend? New projects for winter camping and cold hunting season. I'll probably start with duel battery and feel better about running a heater off the secondary. Not looking to break the bank but I know the buy once cry once is always in effect. I've got a marine/Rv deep cycle battery, nothing fancy. Wanna keep it basic without a labyrinth of wiring, my wiring game sucks..

 

If anyone is looking to adopt a cat let me know. A buddy of mine his female got out, got knocked up and had some kittens. Siamese. I can get pics if interested.

 

Ive got two more cats you can have as well...

Wife got em when we lived in an apartment without kids.

Now the toddler terrorizes them and they stay hidden.

 

Lol. I told my buddy to take them to the chinese food place by his house. Maybe we can take yours there and have some kitty-chow-mein.

 

Not the worst idea. Wife wants to make sure they go to a good home.
Ill tell her there is a nice new chinese cat rescue in town...

 

Guys any plans for a group offroading trip? Also, what has been your favorite off-roading and at the same time good for camping location near the Phoenix area?

 

Kitty fried rice, Meow lo mein! lol Gotta be better than a Gato taco from Filbertos.

 

I'd love just a day trip on a weekend. I'd like to do the back way to Crown King to pop my AZ cherry. Also that trail seems tame enough my wife would enjoy it. She doesn't enjoy the hard stuff.

 

You and all the SxS fools

 

They're why we can't have nice things. I absolutely got fed up with sxs in Moab. Sat behind a group of fools on Poison Spider that were f'n around on an obstacle and wouldn't move to let us pass.

I'd take other trail recommendations also. I have the funtreks book to reference.

 

Taking the truck out off road for the time since I bought it. Just going on a Forest Service Road but will still be fun camping one nighter. Hope everyone has a good and safe upcoming weekend.

 

You just missed a great one, though a bit longer of an excursion:

i just closed my eyes and picked one of the chinese ones,,,, actually i picked one that had the operating screen i preferred, but its been purring along just fine for 6-7 winters now. seems like Vevor has been making a good name for itself

 

Gato Taco got me!

 

That'd the brand i was looking at before I asked, good to know its working out and lasting for you! Thanks for the info, What size did you get? Looking to warm up the RTT or maybe a 10x10 awning room.

 

Mmmm Shredded mystery meats! haha

 

DUDE, I am dying to go with a group off-roading. I go alone, and I enjoy it, but it is not the same as going with a bunch of cool Taco dudes. Took my wife with me once and she hated the experience; I did not air it down, and I think that was the reason why she hated it LOL

 

5kw, no regerts

 

I picked the Vevor as well, 5k, white high altitude (since most my cold camping is N. Rim, Mogollon Rim or SW ColoRADo)

Do you just use #2 diesel or do you stock up on a #1 winter blend or kerosene?
